Patient Testimonials
Everyone is pleasant. Wait time is short. The doctors explain so I understand and give ample opportunity for questions.
The best orthopedic surgeon around. Dr Keller cares and wants his patients to receive the best care for their aches and pains. He has done so much for me! Thank you
Friendly personal able staff. Dr. Good as well.
I want to express my deepest gratitude to Dr Picerno who was the surgeon that took care of my 92 mom who unfortunately fractured her hip. Just before surgery, he did something I’ve never seen any other doctor do—he prayed for her. In that moment, I felt an overwhelming sense of peace and reassurance, even though I had never interacted with Dr Picerno before. His compassion, faith, and dedication made it clear that my mom was in outstanding hands. That simple act spoke volumes about his character and the care he provides. I’m incredibly thankful!

The Doctors
Super professional
Thorough evaluation of issue
I like Dr Hasting. He communicates well with the patient and i got good results with my problem.
Very professional and friendly staff.
This was the first time I met with Dr. Perry. I felt he was genuinely listening to me, to understand my needs. He is very professional, and takes time to explain things.
Complete & clear understanding of my injury
I really liked that I could get X rays right away instead of having to go to another imaging location on another day.
Always honest, precise, caring and helpful.
Pleasant , physician was thorough, answered all questions and gave an understandable plan of action
Friendly, efficient staff and reasonable waiting time to see the doctor.
**The JOI San Marco office is an excellent location, offering onsite rehab and serving as a key part of my medical team alongside the doctors and staff at Baptist Hospital. Dr. Pujadas was well-informed and showed genuine concern about what he observed in my X-rays. While I was already aware—through an MRI and multiple X-rays—that arthritis had taken over my right leg, there was still more to consider.
This year alone, I’ve experienced three blood clots in 2025, and my hematologist at Baptist MD Anderson has been working to determine the root cause. Since December 2008, I’ve had four additional blood clots, bringing the total to seven. Staying vigilant about my body’s warning signs is essential, and having Baptist’s expertise has been lifesaving. Returning to Jacksonville Orthopedic Institute was undoubtedly the right decision for my ongoing care.**
The staff and dr Pujadas were all fantastic. He listened to all of my concerns and went over all options with direct information. Very thorough
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. I was very pleased with my first appointment.
Fast professional, very knowledgeable, staff doctors and technicians
Location, doctors, entire support stake, proximity to OT and PT providers.
The nurse was clear, and very professional.
Doctor was very professional and personable.
Did not drag students in with my appointment which I find very unusual and distracting with other Baptist appointments. Have NEVER encountered this until I moved to FL this year.
It surprised me early on here, especially since I’m not a charity patient AND I was not asked in advance if it was acceptable. Seems rather inappropriate to assume it’s ok.
